On FY20 basis, the Company priced its issue at 301.5x PE. Due to cost cutting measures, Company margins improved in the H1FY21 which is not sustainable. Cost such as travelling, advertisement reduced in H1FY21 due to Covid-19 are going to come back once business comes back to normalcy. Company’s brand value, margins and return on capital are lower than its peers so it won’t get such premium valuation like its peers, so we recommend "NEUTRAL" rating to the Stove Kraft IPO issue.
